It's that time of the year again when we make gifts and presents to those we care about. As such, and with the great contribution of Lydia and Cleo Aqualynn, and with the supervision of HP Hoodedcobra, I am now able to present to you the second edition of the Calendar, designed in and out for our beloved family of Spiritual Satanists. There have been some changes here and there, and I'm now going to walk you through them.

Firstly, for 2019 I've made two versions of the Calendar: one in colour and another one in white and black. This should be of great help for those who want to print the Calendar, but don't have a colour printer. But in building the W&B version, some of the functionalities had to be reworked or eliminated. One example are the colours for Demons' candles: they had to be removed from the W&B version. Another example is the Ingresses and Retrogrades table found at the bottom of each month. In the colour version, retrogrades are marked with red colour, while direct motions are marked with green. In the W&B version, retrograde and direct motions are marked with the symbols ℞ and Ð respectively. When none of those symbols appear next to a planet, it means that for that month, the movement of that planet is entirely direct. You can see this in the example bellow. None of the planets, except for Uranus, has any ℞ or Ð anywhere on their lines, which means they all move in direct motion. As for Uranus, you can see it begins the month in retrograde motion and, on 6th it goes direct.

This Ingresses and Retrogrades in the table at the bottom of each month should come in handy for anyone wanting a quick overview of the month. In the previous edition one would have to check every single day of the month, in order to spot a retrograde motion or a planetary change of sign. So this should make everyone's life a bit easier. Eclipses are now also added in the same table.

In the bottom table next to Ingresses and Retrogrades, I added the dates the Necronomicon Meditations can be performed. I personally found it rather nerve-racking to figure out and keep track of the right time these meditations are to be done. The current Calendar addresses this as well, for anyone interested in these meditations.

Another change I did, was to move the Demons' candle colour from under the calendar days, down to under their sigils. The days for the kabalistic square of Saturn have been removed completely from the Calendar, because this square is not at all recommended to be done. If anyone still insists on doing it, they can find in the Calendar the appropriate information regarding the movement of Saturn through the signs, and can figure out the best moments this square can be started.

TIP: I don't know how you discarded the previous Calendar (those of you who printed it), but I really didn't like the idea of just throwing it away since it contained the sigils of our Gods. So what I did was to nicely cut off the parts with the sigils and use them as bookmark for my books In the current edition I added a scissors symbol and an intermittent line where the Calendar can be cut and the part with the sigils used as a bookmark. If you use slightly thicker paper to print the Calendar on, the bookmarks will look and feel really awesome. If you don't enjoy religious privacy and are afraid someone might find the bookmarks and create you problems, you can also cut off the names of the Gods from under the sigils, and use only the sigils as a bookmark. Bellow you can see an example of this. Some people might recognise the names of certain Gods (such as Astaroth, Beelzebub or Amon, since they appear in the Bible) but few outsiders will recognise their sigils.

The Dates For Magickal Workings are not just based on Moon signs/phases, but also the planet that rules the working. For example, if you happen to see a good date for a money working based on the Moon sign, but no money working recommended, this would be because Venus (money) is retrograde or in detriment, and/or Sun (wealth) is in detriment. The days of the week are also taken into consideration, as they are ruled by planets. A Friday (ruled by Venus) is not a good day for a black magick working, for example.

On the 13th page more info can be found; this is especially useful for Europe because there are so many countries in both "Western and Central Europe" and "Eastern Europe" to include them in the title. Also, since there were many people who didn't know which file to use, especially in the USA (given there are many time zones known internally by different names), I decided to add more details on the 13th page. Now besides the time zones you can find major cities as well. This change will be of help for those in Canada, USA and Mexico:

If your country is not listed but you know it's from the same time zone and follows the same time as one of the listed countries, then use that file. For instance, there are countries in Central America that are in the same time zone (and uses the same time) as Mexico, USA or Canada. Use one of those files. Same applies to areas in South Africa (UTC+2), Australia and North Eastern area (North-East to the Equator-Greenwich). Just double check the time zone and whether the Daylight Saving Time is or isn't observed.

You'll notice there are cases where a Full Moon falls on a certain day and the Esbat is marked for the previous day. This is intentional. The Esbats are times of celebration, gatherings, etc., that are meant to make use of the increased energies of the Moon. With this in mind, every Full Moon that occurs before ±9:30 AM local time, is marked as Esbat for the previous day. Let's say there's a Full Moon occurring on 3rd of May at 5:00 AM. Most people are still sleeping at that hour and by the time they wake up, the Full Moon is already almost over (it lasts about 3hrs). In such a case the Esbat would be marked for 2nd of May. Because if anyone would want to set up rituals or a gartering later during the 3rd of May, the Waning Moon would already be in full effect so they wouldn't benefit from the real Full Moon energies. It's better to do the Esbat workings shortly before the Full Moon, than after.

The new Calendar is design is very nice, and this came much sooner than I expected. Excellent job those of you who worked on this, these Calendars have proven invaluable. It's projects of this sort that even the Gods appreciate very much. This coupled with everything the Clergy has done along with Rituals/RTRs is very real and tangible work toward advancing our cause.

I just feel I didn't stressed enough the fact that without the help and contributions of Lydia and Cleo, this project would have never came to be. So lots of credits go to them.

There's something I forgot to add in the OP. European Union might put an end for good to Daylight Saving Time across the block. This is very likely to happen in 2019. When and if this takes place, I'll have to redo the European time zones which observed DST. For those living in Europe; please keep an eye on this thread for future possible updates

You're maybe mistaking the planetary glyphs. The only planet retrograde in January, is Uranus. Please check the 13th page where you can find all the astrological glyphs used in this Calendar

Great work to everyone involved, thank you all so much for this amazing piece. I will love printing this even more than the last year's calendar.

I do have one question though. My country uses UTC+3, and the calendar for that does not observe Daylight Saving Time. Well, my country does not adjust its clocks too. Does it mean I don't have to worry about adding or subtracting an hour from the given times for the entire year?

Thanks for answering me in advance and again, thank you for this beautiful thing. May it be a yearly thing for ever!

Hi there. It depends. If you live in the Northern Hemisphere, you can use the UTC+3 (Belarus, Russia) file. This doesn't observe Daylight Saving Time (DST).

However, if you live in the Southern Hemisphere, there's no Calendar for UTC+3. If this is your case, let me know and I'll create a Calendar for your area. Countries in UTC+3 Southern Hemisphere include: Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania, Madagascar, etc.

The difference between the Northern and Southern Hemispheres are the holidays. They're on reverse. Everything else is basically the same (I'm talking about the countries that fall in the same time zone, but in different hemispheres).

Also, the idea behind this Calendar is to be ready for use as it is, where the user doesn't need to add or substract any hours

We cannot promote non-JoS apps in the calendar. And if we promote that one, then we would have dozens of others to promote, and it would get out of hand and look very unprofessional. Also, there are other ways for counting that other people prefer. If someone needs a way to count, they will find one.

Zola, you even wrote in your post here, a reason given to you by the Gods ("I was told from the gods that they won't acknowledge your work because if they did you'd become a target"). So why ask for attention here?

Don't ever look to anybody else for validation. The Gods should be all one needs.

[quote="zolaluckystar"][/quote]There are no mediators in Satanism as you know Zola, and while I cannot speak for them, the Clergy has their own priorities, tending to whatever they can fit on their busy schedule, and there are some things that are of more immediate importance to them and the JoS as a whole. Because we literally are in a spiritual war, think about it this way, you have a platoon of soldiers where one is reporting enemy positions, one is laying mines, another is spotting artillery fire, but then another is taking photographs of the battlefield and of the other soldiers. To the officers in command of the platoon, who in this case, are our Clergy, the soldiers who are fighting the battle are prioritized by the officers while the soldier who is taking pictures is not getting any attention from them for obvious reasons, but later on, when the war is over, those pictures will come in handy. In our case, your beautiful pieces of art and Satanic Tarot may not be of great relevance to winning our spiritual war now, but in the future after we win, they will be treasured, because there will be a renaissance of Satanic art, and your portraits of the Gods could be a big part of it. But again, we are in a serious situation right now and our time to defeat the enemy is limited all truth be told, just this month there are rumors abound of a massive economic crash that will be engineered by the kikes and will be far worse than the Great Depression, and every single day the jews work toward manifesting the apocalyptic war of their Torah which would essentially destroy all of mankind, all of these machinations can only be countered by hard and cunning work, both spiritual and physical. This is why the clergy is prioritizing these more utilitarian creations at the moment, we must double the amount of work we put toward waking people up and the work we put into the RTRs.

Do not let the lack of attention discourage you, just because a few people don't recognize it does not mean they don't appreciate it. You've said it yourself that the Gods themselves highly value your work and that Satan even has copies of your portraits in his Astral Temple! The approval of the Gods is all the approval and encouragement you need truth be told.

Most artists go through a time where they feel their work goes unappreciated, and this is most tragic because artistic beauty should always be appreciated. Speaking personally, your portraits have been incredibly inspiring to me, and ever since you posted those, the morale of all SS who have seen them has gone very far up.

Lydia is completely right!The gods and all the members here appreciate your job!The clergy just do not want to make you a target!This is the same reason some members told to someone to stop posting the amount of the reps of the Final ritual he is doing because this way he is becoming a target of the enemy !My opinion and advise is tha t you have to keep doing what you do and one day that the enemy will be completely destroyed you and everyone there who is working for the gods ,muck work or a little work,will get the appreciation ,honor and the remuneration he/she deserves!
